@evan I think you’re taking the “tools” part too literally. The master’s tools aren’t axes and saws, they’re things like oppression, hierarchy, and a society that allows some people to be “masters” in the first place.

Animal Farm is a good example of this - the pigs had a revolution, and ended up in charge, but they behaved the same way as the farmers. They used the master’s tools, and just ended up with new masters living in the master’s house.
